Reports Publishing

Hi,
I've installed Oracle Reports Server 6i on an NT machine(with Reports Web CGI option), OAS 4.0.8.2 on another NT machine to be my Web Server. I followed exactely what is mentioned in the installation documentation, i.e. configured OAS, updated its tnsnames.ora file to connect with the reports server, created an HTTP listener on it and created the needed virtual variables, created the needed env variables, created the reports server process on its machine.
But when I first tried to run the testing report, I got the following message:
Error: The requested URL was not found, or canot be served at this time, Oracle Reports Server CGI- Unable to communicate with Reports Server.
Where is the problem?
By the way, where to install the Reports Web CGI? should be on Reports Server machine, or on OAS machine? and on which Oracle Home?
Please advice ASAP.
Regards
Mahmoud El-Soaud

hello,
did you set the TNSNAME.ORA and add the alias for reports server ?
CGI is needed on OAS machine !
regards,
the oracle reports team

XML Publisher Error with reports published in XML publisher

Hi All,
I am geting the following error with a report published using XML Publisher
The XML page cannot be displayed
Cannot view XML input using style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.
The system cannot locate the resource specified. Error processing resource 'http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.d...
How can i Rectify this?

Hi Ark,
In order to generate a report using xml publisher. we need the following.
1. XML Data
2. Template file (RTF/PDF/..)
XML data will not be created by the template file.
We will be required to create XML data. One of the easiest way to create xml output is using the RDF. We can change the rdf output type in the concurrent program to XML.
Once the xml and the template is available, "XML Report Publisher" will be able to generate the output in the required format.
Thanks,

Problem calling XML Report Publisher from Oracle Reports

Hi,
I'm facing a problem in calling XML Report Publisher from Oracle Reports.
Basically, I'm trying to customise Dunning Letter program. The program which is submitted calls another program. I have customised the second program and added a call to a stored procedure which in turn calls XML Report Publisher.I have created a template and attached it to the second program as well.
The procedure code is as follows.
v_request_id := FND_REQUEST.SUBMIT_REQUEST(application => 'AR'
,program => 'ARDLP_NON_SRS'
,description => 'Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate'
,sub_request => FALSE
l_status := fnd_concurrent.WAIT_FOR_REQUEST
( REQUEST_ID => v_request_id,
INTERVAL => 15,
MAX_WAIT => 180,
PHASE => l_phase,
STATUS => l_status_code,
DEV_PHASE => l_dev_phase,
DEV_STATUS => l_dev_status,
MESSAGE => l_message );
v_xml_req_id := FND_REQUEST.submit_request(application => 'XDO',
program => 'XDOREPPB',
          argument1 => v_request_id,
argument2 => 'FLS DE AR Dunning Letter Print - German',
argument3 => 603, -- changed 665 -- was 551,
argument4     => NULL,
argument5 => 'N',
argument6     => 'RTF',
          argument7     => 'PDF');
Now, there are two problems I'm facing...
1. when the second program('Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate') gets called it executes this procedure ... logically the 'Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate' should get called twice ... second time from the procedure. Its getting called multiple times .. as many as 15 - 20 times.
2. The Xml Report Publisher program ultimately gets called but its erroring out with the following error:
java.sql.SQLException: No corresponding LOB data found :SELECT L.FILE_DATA FILE_DATA, DBMS_LOB.GETLENGTH(L.FILE_DATA) FILE_LENGTH, L.LANGUAGE LANGUAGE, L.TERRITORY TERRITORY, B.DEFAULT_LANGUAGE DEFAULT_LANGUAGE, B.DEFAULT_TERRITORY DEFAULT_TERRITORY,B.TEMPLATE_TYPE_CODE TEMPLATE_TYPE_CODE, B.USE_ALIAS_TABLE USE_ALIAS_TABLE, B.START_DATE START_DATE, B.END_DATE END_DATE, B.TEMPLATE_STATUS TEMPLATE_STATUS, B.USE_ALIAS_TABLE USE_ALIAS_TABLE, B.DS_APP_SHORT_NAME DS_APP_SHORT_NAME, B.DATA_SOURCE_CODE DATA_SOURCE_CODE, L.LOB_TYPE LOB_TYPE FROM XDO_LOBS L, XDO_TEMPLATES_B B WHERE (L.LOB_TYPE = 'TEMPLATE' OR L.LOB_TYPE = 'MLS_TEMPLATE') AND L.APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME= :1 AND L.LOB_CODE = :2 AND L.APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME = B.APPLICATION_SHORT_NAME AND L.LOB_CODE = B.TEMPLATE_CODE AND ( (L.LANGUAGE = :3 AND L.TERRITORY = :4 ) OR (L.LANGUAGE = :5 AND L.TERRITORY = :6) OR (L.LANGUAGE= B.DEFAULT_LANGUAGE AND L.TERRITORY= B.DEFAULT_TERRITORY ) )
I have checked from database that the XDO_LOBS/ XDO_TEMPLATES_B table has corresponding registration data.
I don't know what's creating the problem.
If anyone has customised the Dunning Letter program before or having any idea about this problem, please help me out ..
Thanks

Overide XML Report Publisher renaming?

Anyone know if it is possible to prevent the XML Report Publisher report from renaming the concurrent request on completion. This makes it very difficult for users to understand what requests are, especially when they are automatically submitted from other concurrent programs.
For example in EBS 11.5.10+ I have a dunning letter custom where the standard "Dunning Letter Print from Dunning Letter Generate" process submits the bursting program and 2 instances of XML Report Publisher, one for the printed dunning letters and one for the summary report. We could live with the bursting report name but both the XML Report Publisher instances complete with the same name! How is the user supposed to know what is what?
Cheers,
Dave

Glad someone else thinks so!
I can see the reason behind what it does and it's fine for manually submitted "XML Report Publisher" requests but when you get to submitting it from another concurrent program the renaming is a pain, especially if you are submitting multiple reports from the same request (e.g. detail and summary reports). Users just don't know what they are supposed to be looking at!
Hopefully Tim will pick it up but I suspect it will have to be a future fix rather than something we can change right now. Roll on a new release for EBS!
Cheers,
Dave

XML Report Publisher program is erroring out

Hi All,
I've customized the AR Customer Statements.
I've created a data definition as "ARXSGP" and uploded the sample_output.xml of Statement Generation Program to it. Also I've created a Data template as "ARXSGPO" and attached the data definition "ARXSGP" to it and uploaded the customized rtf file "XXHCC_CLE_F_ARCUSBALSL.rtf" and set the default output type to PDF.
As I donot wish to call the XML Report Publisher program manually every time when I Print the Statements through Print Documents-->Statements.
So I've done the below customization in ARXSGP.rdf file ie; Print Statements Report which is an Oracle Report.
I've added the below code in After Report trigger.

'XML Report Publisher' not producing Excel output

when i run a report from SRS window, selecting output format as EXCEL, output comes out great in EXCEL format(no problem here)
but when I run ‘XML Report Publisher’ and select the Request ID of the above report and give EXCEL as output format, output is coming in HTML.???
If I select PDF – comes out properly as PDF
If I select HTML – comes out properly as HTML
If I select RTF – comes out properly as RTF
But only If I select EXCEL – comes out properly as HTML
Does any one know what is this???
I badly need the EXCEL output from ‘XML Report Publisher’ because I have developed a template for a seeded process,
XML Report Publisher is the only way to get the output for these kind of Spawned reports.
Help will be highly appreciated!!!
Thanks

ANY Updates on this?????
did any of you run into similar stitutation??
or
can any of you try this and see if it is acting the same?

XML Report Publisher - Blank Report Request Parameter

Hi
I have a custom template and custom data definition in Purchasing application. I ran PO Output For Communication and it generated the PDF. Now I want to do Bursting.
So, I assigned XML Report Publisher and XML Bursting (both out-of-box programs) to Purchasing responsibility. But when I try to run them, I don't see any values in Request ID LOV.
Please suggest what am I missing in there.
Thanks,
NewBie

NewBiePlease confirm that you have added those concurrent programs to the correct Request Group which is attached to the same responsibility.
From (System Administrator responsibility > Security > Responsibility > Define) query the responsibility name and get the Request Group. Then from (System Administrator responsibility > Security > Responsibility > Request), query the Request Group and add those concurrent programs.

SAP Netweaver Portal - Folder structure and report publishing strategy

Hi gurus,
I'm working on a project in which we are publishing BW reports in SAP Netweaver Portal (prior to this, we were using SAP Bex Browser) organizing it by Department (workset, 2nd lvl of navigation), Business Processes (workset, 3rd lvl of navigation) and "iview types" (transactions, queries, dashboards and so on). On 1st level we have a workset simply called "Reports".
For each PFCG role we have on BW (ABAP Server), we created a portal role and defined which of the higher navigation tiers is visible to users (delta-linking the top level navigation worksets to the portal role and setting visible accordingly) and then we assigned Portal roles to the appropriated Group (PFCG role) so all users that have access to certain PFCG role can have access to the corresponding Portal role.
For example:
In BW (ABAP) we have a PFCG Role: Sales PMR Analysis - Administrator, which grants access to Sales Infoproviders, queries and data for PMR analysis. The user that have access to it, should be able to see:
|Reports|
|Sales Administration|
v PMR Analysis
> Web Queries
> Transactions
> Dashboards
> Workbooks
In Portal we create a workset that has: "Reports" and under it, all Departments (Sales Administration, Financial, Services, Human Resources and so on) set as "not visible". We create a Portal role called PMR Analysis and add the Report/Departments workset, set Sales Administration as visible and add worksets/folders named PMR Analysis, Web queries, Transactions, etc, and all the corresponding iviews under it.
If we assign this new Portal role to the Group of the corresponding PFCG role, the user will see exactly as the example from above.
Pros: The users have a clean view of the reports he/she has access.
Cons: The users doesn't have a clear view of what is available in BW so he can request access. There might be some useful report lost in on of the hundreds of BW roles that he doesn't know it exist.
One of the options would be to grant visibility to ALL departments, business processes and iviews in Portal and let PFCG security roles control user access, but that might be confusing to have an overwhelming amount of links, making it hard to find what the user needs, specially during first access. Not to mention possible security breaches.
So, I'd like to know how other consultants are defining this kind of folder structure and report publishing strategy in Portal. Ideally we would like to be able to have:
- Visibility of all existant reports even those that the user does not have acess (so he can learn that it exist and request access)
- Clean view of reports, segmented by department and business processes.
- Possibility to search for reports, even for those that the user does not have access.
I'd appreciate if you guys can share your experience on this.
Thanks in advance.

Cons: The users doesn't have a clear view of what is available in BW so he can request access. There might be some useful report lost in on of the hundreds of BW roles that he doesn't know it exist
This is not a refutation: your BW developers/consultants should be able to write reports, which points you in case of insufficent backend rights. EP is not designed to be familiar with ABAP security concept and cant take any influence at it.

Yes, bad idea.
- Visibility of all existant reports even those that the user does not have acess (so he can learn that it exist and request access)
As you already wrote on your own, this would be not good
- Clean view of reports, segmented by department and business processes.
- Possibility to search for reports, even for those that the user does not have access.
This is not covered by SAP, if you wanna provide that, develop it on your own.
cheers

Report Publishing Feature in Acrobat?

I have heard that Acrobat has a report publishing feature that allows you to reuse the Combine Files functionality, so that when you want to recreate a report with updated files you can use a saved template rather than re-dragging the individual files into the Combine Files box. Is there any truth to what I've heard? If so, can you point me to instructions for using this feature? Thanks!

The Reuse Files window comes close to what I'm looking for:
However, this window only allows you to select from recently combined files and does not give you the ability to select a template (i.e., a preselected list of files to combine) that you could use to quickly republish reports with updated files. Does that make sense?

CR08 report published on BOEXI works fine, but not on CRS08 (JDBC conn)

CR08 report published on BOEXI works fine, but same report published on CRS08 does not work (JDBC connectivity)
The workflow is:
1 - Crystal Report was created using CR2008 using JDBC connectivity,
2 - Published on BOEXI, and
3 - Same report accessed through InfoView
Remark - the report works fine.
The very same .rpt when published on CRS 08, throws an error;
1 - Crystal Report was created using CR2008 using JDBC connectivity,
2 - Publishing it on CRS 2008, and
3 - Same report accessed through InfoView
Remark - The report does not open (Error: Failed to open the connection.... )
If the publishing of reports take place from CR08 to BOE XI and could be successfully viewed in InfoView, then why cannot the same rpt be viewed in CRS 2008 InfoView.

Moving to BOE forums.

I have found a solution.
I create a web service in which i return a dataset, filled with the data wanted.the web service take as parameter: the report name we want, the parameter(s), and the username and password (to check if the user has right to access to data.)After that, I fill the report, client side, with the datasen given. i don't know if it's the best solution but it works !

XML report publisher doesnt open in Excel directly but opens in Browser

I have run a seeded FSG report with XML as output option and then ran XML report publisher to this request with Output as EXCEL but When I click the View Output button the output opens in Browser. I want it to open in EXCEL.
How to do this?
Thanks

Hi
A quick Google
Open Control Panel
Open Folder Options
Click File Types
Locate "XLS Microsoft Excel Worksheet" -- Tip: Quickly scroll to items beginning with 'X' by pressing the 'X' key on the keyboard.
Click the Advanced button.
Highlight the default action (often Open), which is bold.
Check the box that says "Confirm open after download" and if "Browse in the same window" is checked, uncheck it.
Click Ok.

Run a Crystal Report published on BW from SAP NetWeaver Portal without BOE

Hi all,
We need to create a report using Crystal Reports, save it to BW, publish it to SAP NetWeaver Portal, and run it from SAP NetWeaver Portal. We do not want to use BOE here.
Currently, we are able to save the report on BW.
With Xcelsius, we have seen that we can directly refer to the dashboard's technical name from SAP NetWeaver Portal. Is similar thing possible using Crystal Reports? If yes, how this can be achieved?
Regards,
Dhanesh Aradhye

take a look here:

Portal Part 4

but you still need the BusinessObjects Enterprise system as only the BusinessObjects system will actually render the report.

Access Denied Error Message in KM for the report published from BI

Hi,
Whenever we publish a Report from Bex Report Designer using Bex Broadcaster the report is getting published in the right KM Folder we choose, but when we click that link with in KM and choose Details we get a message saying "Access Denied". Due to this error that link is invisible in the actual iview where my KM folder is displayed.
This Problem occurs only with Reports from Report Designer and not with Query from Query Designer and Web Templates from Web Application Designer.
The user I use in BI and EP is the same. I am the owner of the KM folder and so I have full access to the folder.
Is there any particular authorization required from BI side?
Thanks
